This creamy formula combines SPF protection with superior, lightweight coverage that blends seamlessly to conceal blemishes, dark under-eye circles and other skin imperfections all day long. More than a concealer, it also works to decrease the appearance of dark spots and discolorations for a radiant, even-toned complexion.

Really like this over the powder and brightener
When I switched to the liquid foundation, the sales lady suggested I get a concealer. She automatically suggested the Stroke of Light, which I realize NOW is not a concealer. I have veins on my nostrils where my glasses rest. Foundation and powder concealer tend to rub off or cake in that area. The Correcting Concealer not only masterfully covered the veins because of the high pigmentation, it also lasted a lot longer than anything else I have used in that area of my face. It really stays put! It blends beautifully and is not shiny or shimmery. It has a creamy texture, yet matte appearance. I have read some comments that it is greasy. I have combination skin and this does not feel heavy or greasy at all to me, but as always, YMMV.

Best concealer out there
The coverage is perfect and a little goes a long way! It goes well under the powder AND Bareskin foundations! I've even just used this and some tinted moisturizer (the new complexion rescue is my fave) and it looks great! Ive been using this for years and will never use anything else! <3

Excellent
Love the powdered mineral concealer. Product works great on this old face, never flaking, always giving a smooth appearance. I no longer worry about sun spots or damaged areas on my face. I am confident I appear smooth and blended to any and all.

Concealer
I love the concealer. It is actually my favorite product. It covers the dark spots and circles under the eyes and last all day.
I also use the Matte finish and love that it takes so little to use.

Powder version works better for me
I have always used the powder version concealer but got talked into this at the store (came in a kit w/ brush and eye brightener) and I hate it! It is greasy and doesn't cover nearly as well. And worse - it has made my face break out. So lesson learned, buy what you already use and love!

Best thing EVER (no lie bro)
I saw this and looked at how small it was..looked at my face and was like, this wont last..WELL was i wrong. This Little thing goes along way! I use it mostly under eyes and in areas i feel its needed. After a minute it just feels like you placed a very light soft powder on your face. No cakey after feel, no crumbling off, feels soft and like you didnt even put make up on. I live by this Concealer. Trust me, give it a shot. It blends well and is great for dark spots, pimples, dark eyes, eyeshadow base, you name it! :) Very pleased. (also works with just about all skins)

Awesome Concealer!
I previously used the powder concealer in Bisque, and was disappointed in the coverage. THIS concealer, however, is the magical end to all of my cheek/jawline red blemishes. I use the maximum coverage brush that came with my Get Started Kit, just put a little dab over scars and pat it around a little. Voila! My husband keeps commenting that my face is clearing up really well, LOL!

Great product, terrible packaging
This product does a great job evening tone around eyes and eliminating dark circles. I would definitely recommend it to those who want to even out their complexion and conceal blemishes, etc. I have bought this item several times and the top part of the compact always snaps off. It's particularly difficult to deal with if you have to travel with it as I end up taping it together. I wish it came in a different type of packing, and also in a larger size.

My Number 1
I have tried countless correcting concealers. I finally have the creamiest correcting concealer. I am bare caramel in the bareskin brightening serum foundation and deal with dark circles and hyperpigmentation, almost always dry in both areas. Tan 2 is perfect for my dark circles and Dark 2 for the hyperpigmention. What an AWESOME product!!! No more dry flaking troubled areas. Again Bare Minerals has out done themselves. THANK-YOU!!!!

I have oily skin and I tried the bareSkin product but it didn't work due to my very oily skin no matter how much mineral veil I used. I'm back to using the original powder foundation but still would like a concealer other than the powder as I have a lot of acne scars.

I where your matte foundation in deepest dark N50 and I'm looking to find the right concealer. They say you should chose a concealer a little bit lighter than your foundation. So should I chose dark 2 or deep 2?

My skin can sometimes turn into an oil slick. I am considering purchasing either this concealer or the well rested eye brightener (I have slight dark circles as well). I like medium to full converge, but I don't want it to slide off my face.

The well rested eye brightened really isn't a concealer. It's more of a luminizer product. It definitely isn't something I would put over my whole face, just places that need lightening. It is a translucent/whitish color with some glisten to it. It will not provide much actual coverage. I actually put the well rested on over my foundation under my eyes. The correcting concealer is a fantastic concealer with great buildable coverage. My face gets super oily no matter what brands or products I use, but I think I get the best result with BE products. It doesn't feel oily and doesn't run down my face like other brands; I just see the shine in the afternoon. I would definitely recommend finishing with the mineral veil if you get oily, though.

I've used Benefit Erase Paste and Eve Pearl Salmon Concealer for the dark circles under my eyes, and they worked great, except for a slight drying and creasing under my eyes. Has anyone tried these and how does BareEscentuals correcting concealer compare?

Answers

A:

I've not tried the 2 products you mentioned, but HAVE tried many other brands/products for concealer and the only thing I've found that works without spending a lot of time to apply is Bare Minerals Foundation in powder form. I don't care for the BE Correcting Concealer as even the lightest one isn't light enough, and ends up looking like brown spots on my skin. I use one shade of Original Bare Minerals for foundation, and a different shade to use as concealer. Using enough moisturizer under the eyes helps the foundation powder from looking too dry.

i have not used those concealors but iam a advid user of thr baremineral correcting concealor in med 2 its the ONLY one i will use and i only buy it once every 2-3 months its just the best around.i have some pretty bad acne marks on my cheek and dark spots under my eyes and the bare minerals concealor covers amazingly it stays all day and super easy to apply and blend.I have gotten compliments on how great it covers from family members that know the severity of my acnes scars. I used to use almay oe avons mineral stuff but once i tried the bare minerals i have never used anything else again. Im a huge makeup user i love makeup and i trust bare minerals everyday i wont break out or my eye makeup stays and looks amazing all day PLEASE try it i swear by this concealer you wont be disappointed

I use Ready foundation (love it!) in medium beige AND golden medium together. They work great together for me. I'm really wanting to try this concealer but can't decide which shade. I'm blonde with medium skin and with quite a bit of red from rosacea. I will use this mostly around my eyes. Have been using Well Rested for a long time but need a little more coverage. The light 1 seems a little too pinkish. Someone mentioned this concealer runs a little dark so I think medium might be too dark. I don't have a boutique in my area. Any advice is much appreciated!

Answers

A:

I think the key to which one to try would be looking at the Find Your Perfect Shade link. You say you have Medium skin, so I would say either Medium 1 or 2, but it would depend on if you're a cool or warm or neutral tone. If you're using Medium Beige and Golden Medium together, you probably have a warm to neutral tone, and that would be the Medium 2 in the concealer. I've found that following the site's shade matching advice works well for me when I'm selecting a shade. I hope this helps. God luck!

I use fairly medium in matte. I'd advise go lighter. I use light 1 since I have pink under tones.. Based one yours I'd say go with light 2 since you have more yellow under tones. The key to getting dark circles to go away is use a shade lighter of concealer than the foundation you wear.

I think Light 2 would work well for you, since it sounds like you like the warm-based colors. (Light 2 and Medium 2 are warm-based, yellow colors). For concealers, I think going lighter is always better.

You're probably cool. What you could do is go to a regular drug store and try and color match. I would certainly advice you go with BM stuff, but that will tell you which shade you are. If you have a BM boutique near you that would be your best bet.

i tend to use a all over the face nightly moisture cream some of the eye creams may be to heavy and look a little cakey so be aware and stick to the heavy creams both face eyes or all over body to nights it will do more benefit at nigh when your body naturally rejuvenates itself

Personally, I use my Prime Time under and above my eyes before putting concealer on. So it makes sense, this is how I do it...

I put the Prime Time on by squirting one pump onto the back of my L hand, dabbing my R ring finger into it, then dabbing my forehead, hose, and chin with it. Then I take the remaining Prime Time, and divide it between my cheeks. I then make sure to rub it all in (gently) and you have a feeling of having "extra" on your fingers, just gently rub that under/above your eyes. I find that works better than the eye cream.

I generally use eye cream at night when it has more time to absorb on clean skin.

I would recommend using a cream, but let it dry around the eye area before applying the concealer (Stroke of light works best around the eyes). You may want to go to a nearby boutique to figure out which eye cream would work for you.

I have some dark spots that I cover. Bisque alone is great. This concealer (Light 2) is fabulous. And, for extra coverage, I sometimes dab on some Bisque over the correcting concealer. For me, they work together...and they stay on! No need to re-apply.

Personally, I don't think it would be too much. I'm a Bisque user (LOVE IT# and wear the Fairly Light Foundation Matte. I tried this concealer and didn't like it. But, I wanted to use it as concealer for blemishes #I'm pregnant as well and my face is breaking out horribly). I used it for under the eyes and it works great. I say, just don't pack on the bisque after putting on the correcting concealer. Just dust it over lightly. Good luck and hope it helps!
